loon1 setUnitPos "up"

Syntax not guaranteed - check the comref.

It depends on the situation; like, if you wanna create a guard-like soldier, or a hidden sniper/spotter.

For snipers/spotters:
Place the moron, setPos him if you wanna put him in houses.
Then put this in his INIT field:

this setUnitPos "UP"; Dostop This

That'll make him stand still, though yet be able 2 shoot @ any scumbags


For the guards, I use >>This setBehaviour "Careless"<< in the INIT field,
and then I Use triggers or scripts to check when he's supposed to take action.
Then his beh. changes to "aware" or combat etc...

CHEERS :thumbsup:

For the other question..
You make a script, in notepad..

Code: [Select]

_unit = _this select 0
#loop
_unit switchmove "FXStandSurv"
~0.5
GOTO "loop"

And save it in your mission's folder as surrender.sqs
Make sure you change the Type Of File thing to "All Files (*.*)"

And in the unit's INIT field, put this

Code: [Select]

[this] exec "surrender.sqs"

If you call if from somewhere other than the script, you use

Code: [Select]

[unitsname] exec "surrender.sqs"

Gd luck
